Proposed Collection, Comment
Request
ACTION:
Notice.
The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c) (2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed extension of
the ‘‘Consumer Price Index
Commodities and Services Survey.’’ A
copy of the proposed information
collection request (ICR) can be obtained
by contacting the individual listed
below in the Addresses section of this
notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Under the direction of the Secretary of
Labor, the Bureau of Labor Statistics
(BLS) is directed by law to collect,
collate, and report full and complete
statistics on the conditions of labor and
the products and distribution of the
products of the same; the Consumer
Price Index (CPI) is one of these
statistics. The collection of data from a
wide spectrum of retail establishments
and government agencies is essential for
the timely and accurate calculation of
the Commodities and Services (C&S)
component of the CPI.
The CPI is the only index compiled by
the U.S. Government that is designed to
measure changes in the purchasing
power of the urban consumer’s dollar.
The CPI is a measure of the average
change in prices over time paid by
urban consumers for a market basket of
goods and services. The CPI is used
most widely as a measure of inflation,
and serves as an indicator of the
effectiveness of government economic
policy. It is also used as a deflator of
other economic series, that is, to adjust
other series for price changes and to
translate these series into inflation-free
dollars. Examples include retail sales,
hourly and weekly earnings, and
components of the Gross Domestic
Product.
A third major use of the CPI is to
adjust income payments. Almost 2
million workers are covered by
collective bargaining contracts, which
provide for increases in wage rates
based on increases in the CPI. At least
nine states have laws that link the
adjustment in state minimum wage to
the changes in the CPI. In addition, as
a result of statutory action, the CPI
affects the income of millions of
Americans. Over 57 million Social
Security beneficiaries, and millions of
military and Federal Civil Service
retirees, have cost-of-living adjustments
tied to the CPI. Also, eligibility criteria
for millions of food stamps recipients
PO 00000
Frm 00125
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
9281
and millions of children who eat lunch
at school are affected by changes in the
CPI. Under the National School Lunch
Act and Child Nutrition Act, national
average payments for those lunches and
breakfasts are adjusted annually by the
Secretary of Agriculture on the basis of
the change in the CPI series, ‘‘Food
away from Home.’’ Since 1985, the CPI
has been used to adjust the Federal
income tax structure to prevent
inflation-induced tax rate increases.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for the
Consumer Price Index Commodities and
Services Survey. The continuation of
the collection of prices for the CPI is
essential since the CPI is the nation’s
chief source of information on retail
price changes. If the information on C&S
prices were not collected, Federal fiscal
and monetary policies would be
hampered due to the lack of information
on price changes in a major sector of the
U.S. economy, and estimates of the real
value of the Gross National Product
could not be made. The consequences to
both the Federal and private sectors
would be far reaching and would have
serious repercussions on Federal
government policy and institutions.
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility.
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.

change of a currently approved
collection.
